Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality


Comes with the link cable (this is different from the brake cable) that i needed to install on my bicycle.


I would not say they are easy to install, but that's the design of the calipers, not a quality issue with these parts.


Direct replacement for the original parts with the broken plastic sleeves.

Price


Really effective rim brakes for very low cost.


Good product at a very reasonable price.


Price is a fraction of what the bike shops charge.


These were only around $12 a set, however, and included new pads, so the price was fair.

Competitiveness


Solid brakes, easy to install and good braking power if you are used to old-school cantilever brakes.


I bought this to replace the front brakes on my wife's trek multi-trek 720 bike.

    The installation of bicycle brakes is a bit of an art and if you dont get it right the brakes can squeal and not stop effectively
